Kick Bong Interview on Nagamag


Nagamag:
What are the genres that describe better your music style?

Kick Bong:
It's not easy, if we stay within the codes of electronic music, I would say electronica, chillout, down tempo but also electro and techno sometimes or house and even pop, I have a lot of influences! I listened to a lot of funk, acid jazz, new wave, punk, rock.


Nagamag:
Few words about your musical background and career?

Kick Bong:
In 1985 I met friends with whom we started a band and at 20 we signed an album at Barclay it was crazy! afterwards I played with a lot of groups on drums and percussion in different styles, recordings and concerts.
Well much later at the end of the 90s I discovered electronic music and I had another revelation so I started to buy equipment and at the beginning of 2000 I created Kick Bong it will be 20 years in 2021. I also have another Triptone project which is more pop, trip hop, electro with a lot of vocal features.


Nagamag:
Do you remember your first connection of love to music that was the right impact to be a music artist now?

Kick Bong:
my dad listened to a lot of music and he introduced me to a lot of different artists and styles, so I started buying records very young when my mom was willing to give me some money, I started with 45rpm and albums later.
every time I listened to music I felt like I was on stage and like that every night I listened loudly and mimed the guitarist, the drummer etc ...
When I was 12, I started playing drums, it's an instrument that I already liked, I can't really explain why even though I loved playing the air guitar; )


Nagamag:
Music has no borders and many of us we may listen to more genres that we are mainly involved. So share with Nagamag which track comes first in your mind from music but is NOT similar to your genre?

Kick Bong:
The Cure "A strange day"


Nagamag:
Of Course Nagamag would love to listen also which track from a similar artist you admire?

Kick Bong:
Trentemoller "Moan"

Julia’s music has been used in art exhibitions, documentaries and films, most notably ‘Looking Out For George’ (2002) which was shortlisted for the Jury’s Prize at the Raindance Film Festival 2003 . In February 2020 Julia was signed up by international Sync agency, Deli Music.

‘Sea Energise’ EP follows the release of her previous single ‘Snowscape Remastered’, remastered at Abbey Road Studios by Grammy Award Winning engineer Andy Walter (Harry Potter).

Julia’s new EP, is a beautiful blend of emotive minimalist piano tracks mixed in with rich magical strings, which yet again takes the listener on a blissful cinematic journey pointing towards the power and miracles of Nature. Special guests on the record are Dani Howard who orchestrated ‘Evoque’, ‘Nature Interlude’ and ‘Starlight’; and German Composer Orchestrator and Arranger Robin Hoffmann who orchestrated and arranged ‘Sea Energise’, ‘Beauty Inside and Out’ and ‘Blended’.

Chris Dodds Director on ‘ Looking Out For George’ (Raindance Film Festival Nominee 2002)

“ Her music is very distant, evocative and leads the listener to still waters, one of the hardest things music should do. Julia does with ease in her amazing style, creating an atmosphere that one would want to listen to forever. “

William Camilleri, Composer and Cannes Film Festival Judge

(Spotify)

intro_p – Promises (Spotify)

“Skip your cheap headphones here, open your quality monitors or headset, don't hesitate to give bit volume. The sound quality here and the right sound set used here erupts all the beauty of harmonics layers. Listener steps into an emotional diving of grooves that hypnotize him in an endless music trip. Wonderful music from intro_p with -Promises- on Introp Music imprint.”

-Nagamag.com

Intro_p is back out of his rabbit hole with 2 brilliantly soothing and absorbing tracks for his 9th EP called “Promises”. This EP underlines the common values of humanity, even if we have different cultures, religions, social backgrounds, etc. At the end of the day, we all have similar attitudes towards promises. It is ironic though, that “promises” are made by political leaders to divide us.
